The Committee for the Comprehensive Assessment of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (chairperson: Tohru Nakashizuka, Professor of Tohoku University) organized by the Ministry of the Environment of Japan compiled "The Report of Comprehensive Assessment of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in Japan (JBO2: Japan Biodiversity Outlook 2)". JBO2 assesses the "drivers of biodiversity loss", "measures against biodiversity loss", "status of biodiversity loss", and "impact on human well-being and ecosystem services" based on the conceptual framework of the IPBES.

The report (in Japanese only) and an overview (available in English) of the report can be downloaded from the following website:
